Pick the workflow that's costing you the most. We'll have it fixed in 30 days.
Inside the systems you already own.
A 30 minute call. No slides. We'll tell you what we'd fix first.
You bought NetSuite. Your team is still working in Excel.
An implementation that ran long. Integrations that half-landed. A BI tool someone licensed and nobody opens. Meanwhile the close still takes fifteen days, the board pack is assembled by hand, and three people maintain spreadsheets that shadow the ERP because they don't trust what comes out of it.
ERP consultants know the system, not the finance function.
They will build exactly what you asked for. They will not tell you the eliminations don't tie, the revenue recognition is off, or that the report you specified will fall apart the first time a lender asks how you got there.
Fractional CFOs and controllers know the finance function, not the system.
They can tell you precisely what needs to happen. They cannot build the pipeline, pass the IT review, or automate the close.
So the work sits between them and nobody owns it. We do both halves. That is the whole company.
A finance engineering team, delivered as a service.
Building this in-house means three hires: a systems-literate controller, a NetSuite admin, a data engineer. Twelve months of recruiting and a permanent cost line for work that has an end date.
We run AI and modern data tooling across every engagement. A small senior team ships in weeks what a firm quotes in quarters. No bench, no junior layer learning your business on your budget.
The output of a finance systems team. Without carrying one.
Start with one workflow
Not a transformation. Not a six month roadmap. One thing that is currently costing you real time or real money, rebuilt so it runs.
Covenant and lender reporting
The certificate ties to source. The calculation is documented. You can answer how you got there.
Board and sponsor packs
Produced on a cadence instead of assembled in the last week of the month.
Month-end close
Cut the days. Document what only lives in one person's head.
Multi-entity consolidation
Entities, currencies, intercompany. Automated instead of rebuilt each period.
Cash forecasting
Thirteen-week or driver-based, fed from actuals, not maintained by hand.
AP, AR, and expense
Approvals, coding, and the integrations between the tools you already bought.
ERP migration support
We are not your NetSuite implementer. We are the finance side: chart of accounts, opening balances, data validation, cutover testing, and the accounting decisions your consultant will ask you to make.
Process and SOPs
The steps that only work because one person remembers them, written down and automated where they should be.
Whichever one you pick, the second is easier, because the layer underneath is already built.
First workflow live in 30 days
You are not paying for setup. You are deploying a system your team uses.
Pick the workflow
The one costing the most time, money, or credibility.
Connect what feeds it
ERP, CRM, banking, billing, whatever the workflow actually touches. Only what this workflow needs.
Build it and put it in production
Not a proof of concept. The real thing, in use, validated against your actuals until the output matches reality.
Hand it over
Documented, owned by your team, running without us.
No system replacement. No long discovery cycle. Value proven before you commit to anything larger.
What this looks like in practice
One recent engagement, described without naming the client.
Seven entities, four countries, a migration mid-flight, and a lender deadline.
A newly acquired business was moving from QuickBooks to NetSuite across subsidiaries in the US, UK, Estonia, and India. The sponsor needed a board-ready P&L. The lender needed quarterly covenant compliance. The close was manual, the chart of accounts was being rebuilt underneath everyone, and the reporting had to keep going the entire time.
We worked alongside the implementation partner and the finance team rather than replacing either. We mapped the chart of accounts, validated trial balances entity by entity, documented the close, and built the reporting layer that produced both the sponsor pack and the covenant reporting from the same governed data.
When the security review ruled out a custom application, we rebuilt inside the client's approved stack using licensed data extraction. Same outcome, no new vendor, nothing for their team to maintain that they had not already approved.
We work in the stack you already run
Finance does not live in one system. It lives in the seams between eight of them. Those seams are the work.
- NetSuite
- QuickBooks Online and Desktop
- SAP
- Navan
- Ramp
- Bill.com
- Expensify
- Salesforce
- HubSpot
- Subscription and ARR reporting
- Rippling
- ADP
- Gusto
- TriNet
- Power BI
- CData
- Azure
- SharePoint and Power Automate
- Claude
- n8n
- Python
- Custom, where it earns it
Domestic and foreign entities. Multi-currency. Intercompany. The messy version, not the demo version.
Your security team is a design input, not an obstacle.
The reason finance projects stall is rarely finance. It's that someone proposed a tool that creates a new vendor relationship, a new data path, and a review nobody has time for.
AI in the hands of people who have done the work
There is a wave of people building finance tooling who have never closed a month, never tied a trial balance, and never sat across from a lender. The output looks convincing. That is exactly the problem.
The judgment is ours.
We have owned the close, signed the numbers, and answered for them. We were building data and analytics solutions for finance teams before AI made it fashionable, so the engineering discipline came first and the tooling came second. AI did not teach us any of this.
AI is how we move fast.
It reads messy source data, proposes mappings, drafts commentary, and writes documentation. It never decides what is correct. Reported figures are computed in code, validated against your actuals, and reviewed by someone who knows what right looks like.
Anyone can generate a report now. Very few can tell you whether it is right.
Same engagement. Three problems. All gone.
Signs the covenant certificate without three days of manual tie-out.
Closes the month without rebuilding the consolidation by hand.
Sees entity-level performance without waiting for the quarterly deck.
Who you work with
Zachary Patronis
Zach has worked across oil and gas, manufacturing, SaaS, cybersecurity, ecommerce, professional services, and construction, in domestic and international structures. PE-backed, founder-led, and multi-billion dollar enterprise. The context changes constantly. The underlying problem rarely does.
He has been personally involved in QuickBooks, NetSuite, and SAP projects, on the finance side rather than the implementation side. Before the current wave of AI tooling, he was building data engineering and analytics solutions for finance teams, which is the half of this work most people are still learning. Now he uses AI to do the same work at a speed and accuracy that was not previously available.
That combination is the service. Not an accountant who bought a tool, and not an engineer guessing at accounting.
Around that sits a bench of US-based specialists brought in per engagement. You get the skills the workflow actually needs, for as long as it needs them, and nothing you are paying to keep on a bench.
NetSuite and ERP
Configuration, saved searches, integrations, and migration support alongside your implementation partner.
Accounting and close
Senior controllers and accountants who have owned the close in multi-entity environments.
Data and automation
Pipelines, reporting layers, and workflow automation inside your approved infrastructure.
Modular by design. No bench cost passed to you, no junior staff learning your business on your budget, and no rotating cast of people you have to re-brief every quarter.
Before you book
Can this work with what we already have?
That's the only way we work. No rip and replace. Your team stays where they are. We fix what's underneath.
How is this different from an ERP consultant?
A consultant builds what you specify. We tell you what it needs to do before anyone builds it, because we have owned the close and signed the numbers ourselves.
How is this different from hiring a controller?
A controller runs the function. We fix the systems the function runs on. Most companies need the second and hire the first.
Will you work alongside our existing implementation partner?
Usually, yes. We are not your NetSuite implementer and we are not trying to replace one. We are the finance side of the project, which is the side that is normally missing.
What happens to our data and access when you leave?
Access is revoked, documentation is handed over, and everything we built keeps running on your infrastructure without us.
Why not build it internally?
You can, if you have someone who knows accounting, your ERP, and data engineering. That person is hard to find and expensive to retain for work that ends.
